However those giant rear wheels and the turbulent drag they create are going to stay.
Could these oversized, overly divergent rear diffusers be taming the air both sides of the fences?
That is to say, yes the higher pressure lower speed of the air exiting from underneath the car because of divergence is one aspect, but there is also something happening off to the outside and behind the rear wheels.

Just a random CFD image above to illustrate that rear turbulence.
